I agree with your last comment, however, what you heard on items #1 and #2 are incorrect.
RE #1 I said in my post "Could be wrong but that's what I had heard.". Could have sworn I read it in the Palm Beach paper @ some point that Burnett & Bradley pitched for same HS & had same Agent.
RE #2 If Munsey's handled arbitration/big $$ multi year deals who were they for? The answer is he hasn't. Not a knock, just a fact.
"I don't know the FACTS obout the A.J.Burnett comment"
I do & what I said was 100% correct.
"You seem to put a lot of emphesis on arbitrations and multi-year deals or rather a persons "lack of".
I put a lot of emphasis on them because they're "life *& death" important. Mistakes in either area can cost a player millions of dollars &/or his relationship with his team.
"Impressive lawyer talk but I think a young potential draftee and his parents would much rather trust their sons future with a competent, loyal, hard working person with integrity beyond reproach that they feel comfortable with and especially one that has the respect of EVERY MLB organization and every player that he ever represented."
Why isn't it possible to find these qualities in an Agent who ALSO has experience in the important areas I mention above? It is possible because that's exactly what I give my clients & I know I'm not the only one in the biz who can say that.
"Remember, everybody's your friend when things are going great, but will they be there for your son when he hits bumps in the road (and he will)?
Just my opinion...I could be wrong.
I agree with on that 100%.
